Tar Heels shut down Tribe to advance

Posted Mar 17, 2010
Will Graves did chest bumps with Rameses and Marcus Ginyard wore a huge grin as he stared at the sold-out crowd that showed up for the first men's basketball game in Carmichael in 24 years. That loose and energetic feeling carried over into the opening seconds of the game as the Tar Heels jumped to 9-0 lead and then helped them the rest of the game as UNC held William & Mary scoreless over the final five minutes for an 80-72 victory.
